MuseScore icon
Hello,
Due to some unclear action on my side the standard MuseScore icon for all my MuseScore sheet music files has changed into some stupid standard Windows icon.
How can I change this back to the MuseScore icon? I did try several things without success.
I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
Thanks in advance.
Joe.

I don't think that helps resetting a windows setting...
Re-install might help though

Wow! I thought this was'nt that complicated!
I will try to follow the 'Shoichi solution' before the uninstall-install' one.
Let you know the results........

Sorry Shoichi,
This solution did not work. I think I have to re install.
My God do I hate this .........

Reinstallation should not really be too stressful. Just relax.
Best,

Well, I did a re-install and (what a relief!) the original icon is restored!
But......, MuseScore also produces a '.(filename).mscz,' file. Do not know why but
its icon is that of wordpad. Can I leave it that way or does this file serve a special
purpose and do I also have to change this?

Thanks Shoichi !
Now I know the purpose of this file and if I need it, I just change its name and extention
to use it in MuseScore. The icon is then of relatively unimportance.

certainly there is a match in your language (try Google Translate)

Shoichi,
A system restore? But my last restore point is a while ago and would bring my PC back to a
point where I have to re-install other programs and data...
